In this episode, we speak with Henda, a South African living in Singapore who has been a trailing spouse for over 15 years. Henda talks about her relocation to Mauritius and the challenges she faced as an unmarried trailing spouse. She also talks about closing her company after the birth of her second daughter and the feeling of identity loss that came with it.
